Mission

The Museum Club fosters exploration of the natural world by supporting student involvement in CU Boulder campus museums and cultural institutions.

Vision

Museum Club aims to bring together CU Boulder undergraduates, graduate students, faculty and staff, and CU alumni with interests in museums. Through engaging events, regularly scheduled meetings, and building a network of emerging museum professionals we hope to boost the presence of the campus museums and stimulate an interest in the varied museum professions.
